On sports medicine: most reliable manuals/publications on athletic supplements? seeking wada-compliant regime but concerned with weak fda oversight
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You have every right: ...to be skeptical about claims and composition of athletic supplements! The World Anti-Doping Program (WADA) guidelines offer some advice, but speak with your health provider who understands your unique goals and needs before taking questionable products into your body.
